Why is R&B about screwing like monkeys, while alternative seems to be more about having a good time?

and not the pu$$y whipped losers (look at the lead singers for matchbox 20, creed, etc...)

Ack! Alright Pod, that was just uncalled for! You do not insult Rob Thomas, do you understand?

Now wait one gosh darn second here. I grew up w/the bands of the 80's, sprouted hair w/the bands of the 90's, and I still don't watch MTV for the music video's. I would rather watch VH1 anyday. All that matters is whether or not the music appeals to you. BTW, I've been through all the stages (punk/ska, grunge, tech, rock, country, gospel, classical, R&B, rap(ghangsta too), death metal, you name it). I don't listen to the radio much anymore cept at work (they wont let me have control of the radio!) cuz there isn't enough of a variety. I guess what I'm sayin is different strokes for different folks Peace

I like all sorts of music, but I think the most depressing lyrics are by the Smtihs/Morrissey. Have you ever heard the song Girlfriend in a Coma? It sounds like an up-beat party song! Dunno if that's in context with this thread, but that's what was going through my head while I was reading it.

NFS4, I know I don't mention it, but you seem to have all the same opinions as me! Weird...
